Borked: Unable to boot into the GUI, unable to downgrade properly or go back to the earlier version of Gnome. Tried doing stuff manually, ran into a bunch of dependency issues, gave up. So then I loaded up XFCE and after a while of using it, saw a mac, liked it, and moved. Also I guess I had moved on from the time I was more of a hobbyist and just wanted a dependable system. I had backed up all my config files just in case as well. XFCE continues to be the only usable UI for laptops IMHO. XFCE actually rescued said R50e, and yes, I am amazed by the fact that it is usable. But given that I had been using Gnome for years and years, I personally was not comfortable with XFCE. The mac gives me what I want, a unixy system and a stable GUI without the hoop jumping tricks.
